Set behind electric gates on a desirable riverside stretch south of Lincoln city centre, this substantial Victorian semi offers flexible living across the main house and a self-contained annexe. The recently refurbished interior combines period character — bay windows, working fireplaces and high ceilings — with clear, modern upgrades such as a bespoke oak kitchen/diner, part-renewed electrics and ethernet-cabled gigabit access points.
The annexe provides genuine income or multi-generational potential: open-plan living, a double bedroom with en-suite, bi-fold doors to the garden and dedicated off-street parking. Practical improvements include a new 25mm water main, serviced boiler, new gas meter and enhanced fire and smoke detection; the property is also solar pre-wired and has an EV charger already installed to the rear.
Important negatives are stated plainly: the area records a very high crime level and is classified as deprived, which may affect insurance and resale in the short term. The original solid brick walls were built without cavity insulation (typical for the era), so although many services have been upgraded, some thermal efficiency work may still be desirable. The house occupies a large plot and includes a basement with potential, but that space may need further conversion for habitable use.
Chain free and ready to move into, the house suits families seeking character and riverside convenience, landlords or owners wanting an income stream, and buyers who value versatile accommodation with contemporary tech and security features. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, annexe layout and the thoughtful balance of heritage and modern systems.
